I’m so pumped. I’ve worked with this artist on other stuff, but this style is where he really shines. He usually works out of Montreal, Québec in Canada, but this was done at a convention just outside of Ottawa, Ontario. It took 19.5 hours over 3 days.

Grey Alien hand piece! 3 hours // Seattle, WA // Theo Ivanov

Post image
41 Upvotes

Grey Alien hand piece I did 8 years ago, back when I was still working at my first studio.

The whole thing was done with a 3RL. I don’t use this technique anymore, but everything healed well.

Later on, we extended the tattoo down onto the fingers.

What do you think of the execution?

FINE-LINE SNAKE AND THORNS FOREARM PIECE BY @elva__ink / London / W-ink LDN Studio

It features a detailed snake winding through a sharp, intricate thorn branch. I focused heavily on the microscopic scale details and the realistic textures of the snake's scales, while creating a sharp contrast with the solid black thorns to complement the natural curvature of the arm.

Thank you for looking.

ORIENTAL DRAGON HALF SLEEVE WITH A RED STAMP ACCENT BY @hoch_tattoo / London / W-ink LDN Studio

It features a dynamic, traditional oriental dragon flowing smoothly around the shoulder and arm. I spent a lot of time on the intricate scale shading to give it a powerful, layered texture, and added a custom red stamp tattoo as a sharp contrast to the solid black and grey work.

Thank you for looking.

ROCKABILLY SKULL WITH POMPADOUR AND SUNGLASSES: BLACK & GREY REALISM BY @paulillatats / London / W-ink LDN Studio

It’s a fun, retro-inspired rockabilly skull featuring a classic pompadour hairstyle, sharp sunglasses, and a tied neck scarf. I focused heavily on capturing the bony texture of the skull while creating smooth contrast with the solid black hair and the subtle highlights on the lenses.

Thank you for looking.

SYMMETRICAL MANDALA SHIN PIECES - ORNAMENTAL BLACKWORK BY @giovannalavezo_ / London / W-ink LDN Studio

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

We went for a bold yet detailed approach, creating perfectly symmetrical ornamental mandala pieces on both shins. I spent a lot of time on the geometric framing and the soft dotwork shading inside the floral elements to achieve a clean, balanced look that complements the natural line of the legs.

Thank you for looking.
